Immune mechanisms that “learn“ to deal with specific invaders
Adaptive immune response
Cell division that results in 2 daughter cells having the same number and kind of chromosomes as parent
mitosis
Conveys pathogens to a susceptible individual and is not essential for development of organism
Mechanical vector
A microorganism capable of causing disease
Pathogen
A continuous enclosure around am organ or structure (slime layer)
Capsule
In nucleus made of DNA and RNA and protein
Nucleolus
Contact transmission
Microorganisms are transferred from one infected person to another
Productive of disease
Pathogenic
Immunity associated with circulating antibodies
Humoral immune response
A disease caused by microorganisms that invade tissue
Infection
A vector that is needed in life3 of a pathogenic organism
Biological vector
Poisonous substance produced by a certain bacteria
Exotoxins
Linear strand made of DNA the carries genetic info
Chromosomes
Mixture of bacteria normally found at specific body sites
Normal flora
A substance3 or microorganism introduced by inoculation
Inoculum
Organisms in which the cell nucleus is surrounded by a membrane
Eukaryotes
Produce antibodies
B cells
Semipermeable membrane surrounding the cytoplasm of a cell
Cell membrane
object that may bar or microorganisms and is capable of transmitting them
fomite
White blood cell part of innuendo system and develope from stem cells in the bone marrow
T cell
Structure in a cell that is in charge of growth and reproduction
Nucleus
Study of microorganisms
Microbiology
stack of membranesIn the cell that modifies sorts and packages proteins
Golgi apparatus
Transmission that infectious agents are spread as aerosol and enter the respiratory tract normally
Airborne transmission
Pelative power adn degree of pathogenicity possessed by organisms
Virulence
